what's with the rings on sanji's hands in your latest comic?

I just like drawing him with rings since he seems to like them :]

(He always leaves his left hand ring finger open too… 😭💚)

Species can be usefully divided between r-selected and K-selected. In r-selected species, they have lots and lots of babies, with very few surviving to adulthood. In K-selected species, they have only a small handful, but most of them become adults.

Humans are a K-selected species. The question of what an intelligent species would look like if they were r-selected is an interesting one.

For one thing, technology probably allows for a survival rate of the offspring that's far, far higher. We know this, because human snake breeders (for example) can do it. The primary limits are resource constraints in terms of space and food. So a snake with resources could lay a clutch of a hundred eggs, raise them in controlled environments, then have an immediate fighting force. It's very common among r-selected species to have incredibly short "childhoods", with self-sufficiency almost right away, and that too shapes what their society ends up looking like.

But also ... there's no instinct to raise children in most r-selected species, there's just an instinct to plop eggs down and walk away to go do something else more interesting. So maybe society just grows in such a way that no one really cares about these offspring, that it's more about the feeling of getting the eggs out than the actual child. There's no care and compassion built in.

Except that probably you get a socially better society if people do take care of and shepherd the young. So maybe this happens mechanically, with no emotion, only calculation? Or only in certain circumstances, those where continuity is important, because after all, an r-selected species can create many many more of themselves if they aren't resource constrained.

I imagine r-selected armies, raised from birth, which was maybe only a year or two ago, clashing against each other in a bloodbath, all in service to their overlords.

With how popular the haiku bot is, any post it reblogs is bound to gain a lot of notes.

I occaisonially reblog from the haiku bot.

So it occurs to me that, sometimes, I help niche posts break containment.

absolutely killing me how the end of transformers one is basically meg and op battling for who got served the divorce papers worse. d-16's like "you betrayed me so hard that i can't even save you this time, i'm going to rebuild our civilization without you even though i wouldn't even be at this point if you weren't there. i killed you and i will wear that horror forever now, no matter how many layers of cold hard unrewarding armor i gild it with. i can't believe you did this to me. drop dead." and in retort orion became robot jesus

Just stumbled across the Pokémon teams I made with my partner for all 10 of the strawhat pirates. Took like 3 hours and several bottles of wine. maybe I’ll draw them when I have the time?

I know it's cool to hate on everything that is different and new, but I quite like the new SM show. Especially this scene where Peter brings the woman to the store owner she stole money from instead of turning her in to the cops

She says that she lost her job recently and apologizes to him. Despite saying that it's the owner's choice, Peter backs her up and says that she just made a mistake, she made a bad decision due to her recent "bad luck"

And I liked that. A lot. Not saying the show is perfect, there are some writing choices that made me raise my eyebrow, but this is a very Spider-Man thing to do. Peter is lower class, so he understands what she's going through. I want more of this.
